A member asked:
I was messing with my throat area for about three days. i was kind of poking my thyroid back and forth aggressively moving it kind of. can my thyroid tear from that kind of trauma? its swelling on one side and pain. this was about two weeks ago.?

You cannot reach your thyroid by messing with your throat. The pain and swelling is likely due to trauma to the throat wall, not thyroid gland. It should heal if you do not mess with it anymore.
